Changes on Tumblr

🌟 New

• Posts on public communities now have a new share button so you can easily share them outside of [tumblr].

🛠 Fixed

• Notifications on your blazed posts can now be muted again.
• The editor no longer counts HTML characters as part of the 4096-characters-per-block limit.

🚧 Ongoing

• We’re aware that the queue is not paginating in the iOS app, and we’re working on a fix. For now, you can manage your queue on the web in any iOS browser, like Safari.

🌱 Upcoming

• No upcoming launches to announce today.

🌟 New

• We’re working on making your follower count more accurate. Specifically, for those of you with less than 1,500 followers, the follower count no longer includes followers that were deleted or suspended. We had previously launched this for folks with less than 200 followers, then later for folks with less than 700 followers. With follower count not being a status symbol here (on [tumblr]) our goal is to make the count overall more accurate to accounts that would actually be able to see your posts in the Dashboard.

🛠 Fixed

• [tumblr] was briefly down yesterday, so we sent one of our best developers on a coffee run for the tumbeasts. Once satisfied, they brought everything back online.
• We fixed an issue that prevented posts in a community from being filtered based on the author’s blogname.
• We fixed an issue that was preventing links from being added to text in the iOS app. Please keep your apps up to date!

🚧 Ongoing

• No ongoing incidents to speak of right now.

🌱 Upcoming
